Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Joshua D. Hedrick (on appeal) and Gregory P. Isaacs and J. Franklin Ammons (at trial), Knoxville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Jeremy Jerome Hardison.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General and Reporter; Garrett D. Ward, Assistant Attorney General; Charme P. Allen, District Attorney General; and Hector I. Sanchez and Joanie Stallard Stewart, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): HIXSON

A Knox County jury convicted the Defendant, Jeremy Jerome Hardison, of first degree premeditated murder. The Defendant appeals, contending that (1) the trial court erred by denying the Defendant’s motion to recuse the trial judge; (2) the trial court erred by denying the Defendant’s motion to suppress evidence obtained from the execution of a search warrant on his residence; (3) the trial court unconstitutionally limited the Defendant’s ability to cross-examine a witness; (4) the trial court erred by admitting expert ballistics testimony at trial; and (5) the evidence was insufficient to prove the Defendant’s identity as the perpetrator. After review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
